    Placement, continued be placed as close to the speakers as pos- sible. Run long balanced interconnect cables to the amplifier and keep the speak- er cable length to a minimum. Speaker cable adds impedance to the load the amplifier must drive, regardless of the cable’s gauge.

    minimize sonic loss but also have immu- nity to induced noise, especially for instal- lations using long cable lengths..Balan- ced connections have 6dB more gain than single-ended connections. When level matching is critical, keep this speci- fication in mind. WARNING Use only one set of inputs to the amplifier at a time.

    Amplifier Operation It is easy to understand the operation of the KAV-250a amplifier. However, great care needs to be exercised when operating a sys- tem that includes the KAV-250a, because of the amplifier’s enormous power output. Switching between active sources without muting the preamplifier output, or bump- ing/miscuing a cartridge, can generate large transients at low frequencies.
